Our Review
This olive-shaped compression sleeve puller is a solid single-purpose tool that excels at removing stuck ferrules from 1/2" and 3/4" NPT brass fittings without damaging them. The solid brass construction of the puller itself resists corrosion, critical for plumbing work, while the detachable lever handle provides genuine mechanical advantage for extracting stubborn compression sleeves. The olive-shaped design grips the ferrule securely, and the lever mechanism delivers consistent extraction force suitable for residential and light commercial applications without requiring power tools.
What We Like
- Detachable lever handle maximizes mechanical advantage with compact storage footprint
- Solid brass construction eliminates rust and corrosion concerns in wet environments
- Precisely sized for 1/2" and 3/4" NPT fittings with positive ferrule engagement
- No batteries or power required—purely mechanical reliability
Watch Out For
- Limited to two fitting sizes; doesn't address 1" or larger compression connections
- Requires moderate physical strength and leverage technique; less effective for extremely corroded ferrules
The Verdict
“A practical, durable hand tool that justifies its cost for any plumber who regularly encounters stuck compression fittings on standard copper stub-outs.”
